April 1, 20206 yr Popular Post This is my first turned bowl made from a cedar we had to cut down. i think it turned out pretty well, but always open to advice and tips.
April 1, 20206 yr Popular Post Wow , Lissa! That is gorgeous! Beautiful color and love those detail rings!!!
April 1, 20206 yr Popular Post Looks pretty good for a first. Now welcome to the addiction. From the first the habit spirals upward to bigger lathes and more tools. Just be careful of the cedar dust it can cause some respiratory problems. Pretty daring for a first to do the burn ins.

So I wear a really good on with the disc that screw in to the sides. its I mask I was issued as a paramedic but when i was retired that is one thing they do not take back as it is made to fit each person. So yay i just have to buy the filter replacement now. Edited April 1, 20206 yr by Lissa Hall

April 1, 20206 yr Beautifully done ! Yes the cedar can really cause respiratory problems, so definitely wear a mask when working with it.

April 2, 20206 yr Popular Post Lissa, Very nice. I like working with Cedar too. Now one good turn deserves another. I'll be looking forward to your next turning.
April 2, 20206 yr That is very nice Lissa. I haven't even worked up enough courage to turn a bowl. Was the cedar dry?
